Client requests

I am fortunate in the consulting world for two reasons I can think of right away.

1)  I've been doing this a long (don't really know if thats fortunate), but because of that... I'm the expert.  I reserve the right to pass final judgement on whether you get the software to do what you asked for.

2)  The level of intelligence is generally higher for my clients than most others.  I build software for scientists.

This of course, doesn't mean I don't occasionally get a request that makes me bust up laughing:

Sure.... I'll make those numbers all caps for you.
